Show other versions (1)

The paper analyzes two systems of certification of organic products, the Participatory Guarantee System and the Third Party Certification, by comparative analysis of two realities: the State of Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil) and Andalusia (Spain). This study has analyzed the trajectory of both systems in each of the areas and their specificities with particular attention to the perspective of social actors. To do this we used a qualitative methodology supported by the application of open interviews and participant observation. The main conclusion is that although both systems have been present in the two areas, the predominance of one over another in each region is a reflection of complex interests arosen around the certification of organic products by both public and private entities, and the organic operators.

El trabajo analiza dos sistemas de certificación de productos ecológicos, el Sistema Participativo de Garantía (SPG) y laCertificación por Tercera Parte (CTP), mediante el análisis comparativo de dos realidades: el Estado de Rio Grande do Sul(Brasil) y Andalucía (España). Se estudian la trayectoria seguida por ambos sistemas en cada una de las zonas, así comosus particularidades, otorgando especial atención a la perspectiva de los actores sociales. Para ello se ha utilizado unametodología cualitativa sustentada en la aplicación de entrevistas abiertas y la observación participante. La principal conclusiónes que, si bien ambos sistemas han tenido presencia en las dos zonas, el predominio de uno sobre otro en cada regiónconstituye un reflejo de los intereses creados en torno a la certificación de productos ecológicos tanto por parte de lasentidades públicas y privadas, como por parte de los operadores ecológicos.
